Table 3

Evaluation of platelet counts in response to HPET in HpSA positive patients ().

Platelet response	Number	Percentile (%)	value
Complete response	19	55.8	0.0001
Partial response	10	29.4
No response	5	14.7

HPET: H. pylori eradication therapy; HpSA: H. pylori stool antigen.
Platelet count 150 × 10⁹ L⁻¹.
Platelet count 50–150 × 10⁹ L⁻¹.
Platelet count < 50 × 10⁹ L⁻¹ or an increase of <20 10⁹ L⁻¹ after at least 6 months of follow-up [15].
